| Hi all,
I'm a Csound newbie diligently working through the Csound book and other
tutorial resources available and I have a question about a specific example.
I ran example 117.orc/117.sco from Chapter 1, p28 through csound 5.07,
win32 build with double samples and found a) 109471 samples out of range
and b) the expected bad noise to go with it.
With a bit of experimentation I found that multiplying the final output
by 0.07 removes the samples out of range (and that multiplying by 0.08
does not).
I assume (and this may be a bad assumption) that once upon a version,
this example ran without clipping so either I've got a bad install or
something has changed in the opcodes that implement this example since
the example was created - I'm really just trying to rule out the former.
Although, if it's the latter, almost 23dB of scaling seems like a pretty
big shift in operating point to me.
(Since this is my first posting to this list, let me express my
appreciation to the community for what is obviously a fantastically
powerful piece of software and also my congratulations on the revamp of
the website - I'm considering starting a "newbie" blog with the new
capabilities to help push me along the path to enlightenment....)
Cheers
Gareth
